FLYING DOG BREWERY - IN-HEAT WHEAT HEFEWEIZEN  First off, love the label on this one: "a sword swallower taunts the crowd as they chant deeper, deeper! The ringing in your ears fades as you notice the mousetraps on his nipples. The air smells like cloves and your mouth is wet with banana. Either you are in the best goddamn bar in the states, or you just took your first sip of In-Heat Wheat." If that doesnt get you ready to try it, nothing will. The aroma is strong banana with a little spice and wheat breadiness. Flavor is the same, but the banana and spices are more subdued here. Seems a little light for a hefe, but it is very drinkable. Nothing too complex, but pretty decent for an American Hefe and well worth trying.

JACK JOHNSON - SING A LONGS AND LULLABIES FOR THE FILM CURIOUS GEORGE  Yes, i chose this Jack Johnson album today. I really like his voice, and while this album didnt have the commercial success of his other solo stuff, i still find it quite enjoyable to listen to. His carefree style is perfect for the voice of Curious George. I have never seen the movie, but i understand all the songs are prominent and important to the story. A bunch of fun crafty songs with great messages that people of all ages will find entertaining.  Favorites: Upside Down, Jungle Gym, We're Going To Be Friends (White Stripes cover), The Sharing Song, The 3 R's (adapted from Threes A Magic Number, which we all remember), Lullaby, and With My Own Two Hands. Fun listen.
